Project description:We sought to identify a characteristic profile of proteins in blood plasma samples taken from patients with colorectal cancer using mass spectrometry. We obtained mass spectrometry data of 38 samples from patients with colorectal cancer and 41 samples from healthy volunteers and the data analysis were carried out using panoramic ultra-high resolution mass spectrometry. We carried out a comparative analysis for two series "case" and "control" of protein profiles, differently expressed proteins and proteins with posttranslational modifications.
Project description:Microarray analyses for the identification of differences in gene expression patterns have increased our understanding of the molecular genetic events in colorectal cancer. We used gene expression analysis data from recurrent and non-recurrent patients with colorectal cancer to identify differentially expressed probes. Tumor tissues were taken from 81 patients with colorectal cancer, rapidly frozen in RNAlater, and isolated using Trizol. Gene expression pro?les were determined using Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 GeneChips.We aimed to identify a molecular signature that can reliably identify colorectal cancer patients at high risk for recurrence.
Project description:lncRNAs contributes to the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). Analysis of tumor tissues and adjacent non-tumor tissues from 6 colorectal cancer patients was conducted. Results indicate insight into molecular signature of the tumorigenesis of CRC.
Project description:Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is one of most common cancers in the world and a main treatment in postoperative chemotherapy is oxaliplatin and fluorouracil (FOLFOX), But the effect is different among CRC patients. In this study, LC-MS/MS strategy was used to profile the plasma proteome in FOLFOX benefit and futile group. As a result, a panel of plasma proteins by machine learning from our data was verified for a possible prediction tool in postdiagnosis.
Project description:This study aims to investigate differentially expressed proteins in tumor pericytes derived from colorectal cancer patients with or without liver metastasis. Tumor pericytes were isolated from tumor of colorectal cancer patients with or without liver metastasis. Then, tumor pericytes were cultured and subjected to proteomic analysis. TCAF2 was significantly increased in tumor pericytes from liver metastasis patients.
